That's awesome. Also shows how much oil companies have hindered the development of electric vehicles. Every other tech has 100x in 125 years, electric vehicles only became somewhat mainstream in the last 10-15?
Sure, but also people just like it. I live in Illinois about 2.5 hours out of Chicago and I love it. We have all 4 seasons, the population is roughly 400k, we have basically everything a major city has, way less traffic, cost of living is minimal (comparatively), I can travel 10 miles out and it's farmland where we can run ATVs and dirt bikes, hunting (not my thing personally), you can easily go into Chicago if there's a huge concert or event (we get a lot locally too).
I get that it isn't everyone's thing with snowing a few times a year, or you're not an hour from a beach. But that would eventually get old after a while I'm sure.
Just saying there are plenty of reasons to pick "why would you live there" places.
Yeah, I'd say they are in comparison. The problem is they're really really expensive. I get it isn't ever going to be cheap or cheaper to do it their way, but the buy in is like double to triple. That doesn't include replacement/upgrade parts down the road. It's worth it for a really small niche of people for sure though.
Users: We just want OS wide dark mode, AI not rammed down our throats, and non stop ads, and hopefully updates that don't break everything repeatedly.
MS: We hear you loud and clear! We're implementing AI into every single thing and the ADs will now be targeted based on information we've stol.....collected from you!
Sorry I watch way too many funny flat earth videos on YouTube. The stuff they come up to explain the world is.....well I'm not sure I could come up with it while on acid. It's pretty nuts.
And they say batteries aren't to blame, because you know car seats, electric motors, and body panels are known for just randomly catching fire. It obviously wasn't the batteries /s
Anytime I see these posts I have to chuckle to myself. Living in China for 5 years myself, if you trust a single thing the CCP releases, you're already screwed. Could this be true? Maybe, it's possible. That's the problem with lying about everything, and there's no independent anything to verify what they're actually coming up with, and it disclosed to anyone.
I'm sure most countries fudge numbers to a degree, China just makes them up half the time, literally. For example, their official covid death amount is 120,000 or so, but it's close to a million or more. Like I said, I'm sure countries fudge this number to some extent, but 10x is pure BS.
Well I knew I wouldn't because I planned on committing suicide. I have type 1 diabetes (since 9) so before I started having problems I would just not have to deal with it.
Unfortunately or fortunately I met my wife at 32 who had a 5 year old and now I'd feel bad doing it. At 42 I've had 2 heart attacks 3 stints and I'm stage 5 kidney failure on dialysis. All from being diabetic, controlled blood sugars my entire life, worked out 3 days a week, don't drink or smoke (never have). I'm just "lucky". I'm on the list to get a new kidney and pancreas at the start of 2027, but we'll see what happens. I've already made my peace so I just live one day at a time. Had a seizure and was intubated for 24 hours, for no reason doctors tell me about 3 months ago.
So yeah the plan was 35 and be done. Then this amazing woman messed it up.
This dude is such a damn joke.
